NBA Odds: Pacers, 76ers Prepare for Battle on Tuesday

The Indiana Pacers and the Philadelphia 76ers are in the thick of the Eastern Conference playoff race. Currently, the Pacers are third, and the 76ers are sixth, so this could very well end up being a first-round playoff series preview.

After beating the Boston Celtics on Sunday, the Pacers are 39-28 SU and 38-29 ATS. The 99-97 victory was powered by Victor Oladipo, who had 27 points. With nine wins in their last 12 games, the Pacers are one of the hottest teams in the NBA right now.

The 76ers aren’t too far behind. Following a win in Brooklyn on Sunday, they’re 36-29 SU and 36-27-2 ATS. With 11 wins in their last 15 games, they’ve been one of the better teams in the East of late. They’ve been particularly dominant at home, where they’ve won 11 straight games.

The Pacers are 8-2 SU and 7-3 ATS in their last 10 meetings with the 76ers, who have split a pair of games with Indiana this season. On November 3, the 76ers won 121-110 at home, while the Pacers returned the favor with a 100-92 victory at home on February 3.
